How Much Does Laser Tattoo Removal Cost?

The Bank Doesn't Have To Be Broken

We love tattooing – and laser tattoo removal – here at Lamar Street Tattoo Club! That might not surprise you, considering we’ve been voted the best tattoo shop in Dallas, but we are always blown away by how beautiful ink can be when done right.

We love the creativity, passion, and dedication our patrons bring to their artwork. Each tattoo is a unique expression of your individuality, and we love seeing how beautiful, artistic, and well-researched tattoos can be.

However, we’ve also seen some less-than-stellar tattoos come into our tattoo shop over the years. Tattooing is a safe and straightforward discipline, but some artists and shops cut corners. This usually results in subpar and shoddy tattoos. It’s usually tattoos like these that end up on our desk for laser tattoo removal.

You probably have some questions if you aren’t familiar with tattoo removal. How much does laser tattoo removal cost? What does the process look like? If you’ve ever wondered how much it would cost to remove that less-than-excellent tattoo, read on to learn more from the experts here at Lamar Street Tattoo Club!

Laser Tattoo Removal

As with many things in life, the cost of removing a tattoo will vary. A few things really impact the cost of removing a tattoo. If you want to schedule a consultation in Dallas to discuss tattoo removal, you should expect to pay more or less based on the following:

  • Size of the tattoo in question
  • Number of sessions required
  • Age of the tattoo
  • Patient health
  • Ink colors
  • Pre-existing scarring
  • Depth & density of the tattoo
  • If additional cover-up work is required

A custom consultation is always preferred when reviewing a tattoo removal project. Still, here at Lamar Street Tattoo Club, we like to recommend laser tattoo removal for any tattoo removal inquiries we receive at our Dallas tattoo parlor. This type of tattoo removal lets us safely and efficiently remove subpar tattoos from your body, restoring your flesh to its former glory and giving you a sense of satisfaction about what’s on your flesh.

Common Laser Tattoo Removal FAQs

How Much Does Laser Tattoo Removal Cost?

Our pricing starts at $50 per session, but many factors can impact this. Contacting one of our artists for a custom consultation to discuss your unique needs is always best.

What Can I Do to Prepare Before Coming into Session?

Ice the area before coming in to see us and after treatment. This is a great way to mitigate side effects like swelling and irritation. You can also take a painkiller before or after a laser tattoo removal session. However, it is essential to ensure the painkiller does not contain any aspirin, as this can increase the risk of bruising or bleeding.

Can My Tattoo Be Removed in a Single  Laser Session?

The maximum area an experienced tattoo artist can treat in a single session is usually about the size of a single sheet of paper. Keep that in mind when we discuss how many sessions are necessary.

Any Other Things to Be Aware Of?

Certain skin types or immunocompromised people might require extra care when getting laser tattoo removal. Our Dallas tattoo removal artists will consult with you and make a custom treatment plan as needed.

Laser Tattoo Removal Aftercare

You must follow all aftercare instructions if you do decide to work with us to undergo laser tattoo removal. Proper aftercare helps prevent infection, ensure adequate recovery, and maximize the tattoo in question.

  • Be sure to cover the affected area for the first three days, as sunlight increases the odds of fading.
  • Don’t pick and itch at scabs. This increases the odds of improper scarring and infection.
  • If boils do develop, use a sterilized needle to drain the area, and then be sure to reapply ointment and bandages.
  • Itchiness is fairly common due to the dehydrating effect of the treatment. Our Dallas tattoo removal artists will discuss postcare with you after our session and might recommend an ointment at the tattoo studio. Vitamin E ointment or aloe vera are great options if you need additional skin care.
